Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml Active sourdough starter
- 120 ml Warm water
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Salt
- 360 g All-purpose flour
- 100 g Chopped mixed nuts (e.g., walnuts, almonds, pecans)
- 0.5 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tbsp Oil (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, warm water, and honey. Stir until the honey dissolves.
Add the salt and all-purpose flour to the wet mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until the batter comes together. The consistency should be thick but slightly sticky – no kneading is required.
Fold in the chopped mixed nuts evenly, ensuring they are well-distributed throughout the batter.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and allow the batter to rise at room temperature for 6-8 hours, or until it has doubled in size. Rising time may vary depending on the activity of your sourdough starter and room temperature.
Once the batter has risen, stir in the baking soda gently to help with the final rise during baking.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a loaf pan (approximately 9x5 inches) with 1 tablespoon of oil to prevent sticking.
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Slice and serve the sourdough nut batter bread as is, or toast it and enjoy with butter, jam, or cream cheese.
